anyway last night's CLDDS concert finally came to a close. i rmb getting so hyped up and nervous for jeri n koon. hahah. im not the one performing la. xP i can see they really had a fun time! (((: u girls did a wonderful job! well, we managed to have almost full reunion with the camp guys. the image of them wolfing down the beehoon is damn funny la! * evil me! it's really nice to see of them again. i guess there will not be any camp held in june which means it will be hard to meet up again. oh wells, wish them all the best for their studies! dun get distracted by the blondes! hahah. xP
in the evening, my family went to hougang stadium for a Buddhist ritual called Peace Homage ( san3 bu4 yi1 bai4 ) in which we have to kneel down n pray for every 3 steps. my kor, my mei n i waited for like 2 hours in the queue before our turn! super long! anyway, it was arldy 9pm before we started. initially, i thought it was chicken feet. so for every 3 steps, i made a little wish. so i think i made like abt 20 wishes. hahah! greedy me! anyway, after one quarter of the track, i was already feeling the strain in my knees and was feeling giddy. at that point in time, i figured it's really impossible to even complete one round, nearly felt like giving up. but then, when i realised that people, young and old, are doing exactly the same as i was, i knew i cldnt just give up.
so yupp, despite my wobbly legs and heavy head, i perservered on and completed the ritual! really felt a sense of achievement. hahah!
im really impressed by how children as young as 5 years old can complete TWO rounds. it really takes lots of will power and the heart to do so.
actually, to think abt it, im not exactly a stauch buddhist as i dont adhere to a strict vegetarian meal or completely abstain frm beef, despite being baptised when i was young. i do have a baptised name, Xue something. i will go check it up soon!
when my family was walking towards the stadium, i complained tat my feet hurt as my slippers always caused blisters. my ma then insisted tat i wore hers. i was so touched cuz my slippers were way too small for her. i really felt the love frm her! (:
this led me to relish a piece of memory tat i've long chucked at the back of my mind. i rmb my former class had a xmas celebration at marina south. after eating, we decided to walk all the way back to the mrt which was really really far away. well, my feet started to hurt, so he gentlemanly changed slippers with me. as my slippers were too small for him, he had to walk barefooted! so wei da! hahah.
i decided to post abt this cuz i think im such a person who tends to forget a person's good points and only rmb the bad points. like how i rmbed him arguing with me, him not turning up when we arranged to, him neglecting my feelings. often, i myself had forgotten to notice the good side of him.
frm now on, i must change to always rmb the positive things abt a person and not bother too much abt a person's negative side. this is a learning point for me! (:
pls dun be mistaken tat im still longing for his return. i know we both are still frens and have moved on. (:
i cant wait to be up in a hot-air balloon and witness sun rise frm there! maybe i will do tat for my honeymoon! hahha. one of my random thoughts again! ((:
